Chapter 29 - UnfathomableThis girl was none other than the seventh daughter of the current Emperor of the dynasty, the Seventh Princess Xiang Fei who had traveled to Silver City from Dragon City with the Crown Prince of the Empire of Feng Yun. She was known as the "Pheonix"!
The first thing Xiang Fei and royal brother did when they arrived at Silver City was to pay their respects to their royal uncle, Xiang Tian. The latter arranged a place for the two to rest before Xiang Fei"er moved into Xiang Yun"s former residence.
Xiang Yun"er would never have dreamed that a stately princess like her, who was resting in this room, would actually run out of the room and lay on the bed naked, doing nothing to her. It was so frivolous.
The latter was born in the imperial palace and was the most beloved daughter of the emperor Xiang Lingfeng. From a young age, she had always been proud like a proud phoenix, aloof and aloof.
Even in the face of his own blood brothers, Xiang"er would not give them any face at all.Such a proud woman, such a n.o.ble and intimidating princess, yet she was touched by a man she didn"t know. One could well imagine how angry Xiang Fei had been at that time!
The latter only had one thought on her mind at that time, and that was" This person must die "! Therefore, she raised her longsword and chopped at Xiang Yun. Just as she was about to take a look at this lecher"s wretched life, something even more unexpected happened!The sinner in front of him who deserved to die a thousand deaths was actually the current king side by side. The son of his Imperial Uncle, was also his younger cousin, Xiang Yun!
Although Xiang Yun had been to Dragon City before, Xiang Fei had never seen him. She had only heard that this person was a thoroughly hedonistic young master who bullied men, sought after women, and could not read flowers. All in all, there were negative rumours about him committing all sorts of crimes.
Now that they had met in this manner, Xiang Fei"s impression of Xiang Yun had already gone from disgust to resentment. In her dictionary, only death awaited those who dared to treat their own man like this, and even if Xiang Yun was her own cousin, he would still die!
However, the moment the tip of the sword touched Xiang Yun"s forehead, the words spoken to her by her father before her departure, the current emperor of the Wind Cloud Country, Xiang Lingfeng, suddenly appeared in Xiang Fei"s mind.
Fei"er, right now, Silver City is congratulating your uncle, your father is very worried about you. You have been spoiled by your father, so you don"t think much of anyone, and you look down on all the men in the world, which is not a bad thing for the women in the royal family. But when you go to your uncle"s place, you must restrain your temper and not act impudently in front of him.
When Xiang Fei had heard her father"s words, a hint of disdain appeared on her face as she said, "Royal father, why are you so considerate? I am your daughter, and the Empire of Feng Yun is so big, with you as its head, who else would make things difficult for me, who would dare to make things difficult for me? Even royal uncle would not dare disobey your orders, right? So why should you worry? "Xiang Fei had unwittingly put on a high hat for her father, thinking that the latter would be laughing as happily as before. Unexpectedly, Xiang Lingfeng"s expression was surprisingly solemn as he looked at his daughter with a gaze that was strict to the point of being strict, enunciating each word clearly.
Fei"er, your uncle Xiang Lingtian is the true pillar of Wind Cloud Nation. Without him, there would be no Wind Cloud Nation, so if anyone in the world dares to disrespect the Son of Heaven, then only I, your own younger brother, and your own uncle will do so.This was the first time he had heard of his own father, a wise and wise king of the Empire of Feng Yun. He would actually think that his position could only be ranked second in the kingdom, and that he would hand over the true leader to his younger brother!
However, she did not waver in her pride. He suddenly thought of something and it seemed like he had figured out the reason, and that was because his uncle had done a great deed in saving the Windcloud Nation, which was already on the brink of destruction, three times, and had also turned its military might into a piece of steel.Since royal father respected royal uncle"s achievements, he was willing to lower himself to his current status and bestow the t.i.tle of King shoulder to shoulder.
"Father did it to respect him, not to fear him!" Xiang Fei said to herself in her heart.
At the same time, his heart was filled with dissatisfaction towards this uncle of his, the latter, no matter how outstanding his achievements were or how high his status was, how could it affect the dignity of the Son of Heaven?
Xiang Fei brought along this somewhat doubtful and dissatisfied feeling with her as she made her way to Silver City. When they were still more than ten miles away from Silver City and could see Silver City"s robust figure from afar, the argument between the two brothers and sisters over on the horse carriage regarding King Xiang Tian, who was standing shoulder to shoulder, happened.
Originally, Xiang Fei did not have much reverence for this man who was known as the War G.o.d of the Empire of Feng Yun, despite the fact that he had completely covered her face. Even when she had arrived at the palace and seen this man who was rumored to be divine, she had not changed her mind at all.She had originally thought that this man, who was revered as a war G.o.d by the world, would be extraordinarily tall and mighty. However, when she saw Xiang Lingtian"s true self for the first time, she was shocked to discover it.
His uncle looked young, dressed in a snow-white robe with a jade belt around his waist and a golden-purple crown on his head. He had a solemn and scholarly look on his face as he faced his nephew and niece.Xiang Fei was unable to link such a gentle, refined, and scholarly man with the Blood Slaughter art of a million people, fighting in every direction, and breaking into the ill.u.s.trious War G.o.d of the Empire of Feng Yun.
After exchanging greetings for a while, Xiang Fei"s gaze seemed to be unrestrainedly sizing up this uncle of hers.
It was as if a proud young phoenix was looking at the enormous creature with a measuring gaze. It wanted to know whether this enormous ancient dragon was actually a huge ancient dragon or an old elephant that could only intimidate ordinary creatures.
Facing Xiang Fei"s gaze, Xiang Tian seemed to have sensed something. The latter smiled faintly and gently lifted the teacup by her side, sweeping away the tea floating on the surface of the water with the lid of the cup. Lightly taking a sip, his gaze landed on Xiang Fei who was sizing him up.
"Fei, what, are you still verifying the question in your heart?" Xiang Tian spoke without any warning.
On the other side, Xiang Fei was stunned by the question as she stared at Xiang Tian in shock, unable to understand what the latter meant.
The smile on Xiang Tian"s face grew wider as the corners of his angular face twitched. A voice pierced through the s.p.a.ce between the two of them like a thin thread, entering Xiang Fei"s ears."Weren"t you arguing with your royal brother outside the city, and you wanted to see whether my royal uncle was a G.o.d or not?"
"Boom!"
This short sentence was like a bolt of lightning striking down on her head, shaking the proud daughter of heaven in front of her until her body stiffened and her face froze. The shock in her eyes was like a gushing tide!
Xiang Fei had indeed said those words, but they had been spoken on the official road more than ten kilometers away from Silver City. How could she forget the words that her royal brother had spoken?
One must know that if he and his royal brother had entered the Duke"s Mansion at the same time and met with Xiang Ling at the same time, it would have been impossible for his own brother to have told all of this to Xiang Tian in front of him, but for Xiang Tian to be able to repeat everything he had said, there was only one possibility, and that was that the latter had personally heard his own words!
"How is this possible!" Xiang Fei, who had reached this conclusion, couldn"t believe her own eyes.
If what he had guessed was true, then wouldn"t that mean that Xiang Tian would be able to hear his conversation from far away, over ten miles away in the Silver City"s Royal Mansion? What kind of expert would be able to achieve such terrifying senses?
For a moment, Xiang Fei"s expression was indecisive, her emotions surging like waves. She suddenly realized that her royal father had not only done this due to his respect for her royal uncle, he was even more afraid of the latter"s unfathomable, terrifying strength!
He thought back to what his father had told him, then recalled the experiences of meeting his Imperial Uncle in the Prince"s Mansion not long ago. Xiang"er could not continue this sword strike no matter what.
Because she had always felt that somewhere in the Prince"s Mansion, there was a pair of eyes that was like the eyes of the heavens, clearly watching over everything that was happening. Even if she had the courage to kill Xiang Yun, this person would still have attacked like a thunderbolt!Xiang Fei knew that she would not be able to kill Xiang Yun. She could only lift the longsword in her hand and stare fixedly at Xiang Yun with a pair of cold, piercing eyes. Even as her hand gripping the hilt of her sword let out explosive crackling sounds, she did not move forward even a little!
At that moment, another figure entered the room!
"Your Highness, I"ve already understood the process of the birthday feast. We only need to wait for a while from the Apricot Altar Garden …" Xiang Fei, that round-faced servant girl, had just stepped into the room when the words she was about to say came to an abrupt halt.
At this moment, the clean and tidy room was full of broken tables and chairs. The broken teapot, wood shavings and stone shavings were all over the place. The entire room was a mess!
What caused the round-faced maid to be even more shocked was that on the bed where the princess was resting, there was an unfamiliar man completely naked. Although the man"s hands covered an important area, he still revealed a large portion of his body!The round-faced maid had never seen anything like this before. She first let out a scream, before angrily shouting out the door!
"Men, there is a shameless lecher here. Come and catch him!""Shut up! He"s my son, not some lecher. This is his home!" How could Lin Wan"er, who was standing to the side, allow others to slander her master in such a manner? Furthermore, she understood what had happened, and knew that Xiang Yun could not be blamed for what had happened.
The round faced maid did not expect that there would be a servant girl beside her, and from the looks of it, she was not an ordinary servant. As the princess" personal maid, normally even the n.o.bles would give her face, but now, she was scolding him in front of a servant girl.
"Hey, where did this little girl come from? How dare she speak up for the thieves! Do you know who my master is? She"s the most beloved daughter of the current emperor, Princess Pheonix!" If you dare to say anymore, you might not even be able to keep your head. "
This round faced fat woman really thought this was Dragon City, she actually dared to speak to her in such a tone. Although she, Lin Wan"er, was usually kind, she would not be a pushover if she were to be confused.Lin Wan"er also had a high head and was looking at the round face maid. She said coldly, "My Crown Prince is the third son of King Jian, the owner of this side courtyard. How could he be the scoundrel that you speak of? Don"t blame me for not reminding you; you must take responsibility for your words and deeds!"
"Thump!"
The crisp sound of a chin touching the ground seemed to reverberate through the entire room. The round-faced maid, who had a proud and disdainful expression a moment ago, suddenly opened her mouth like an egg. Her mouth was wide open and her eyes were filled with disbelief!
Was the naked man in front of him, who had his Princess" sword pressed against his forehead, really the little son of the King, the notorious Crown Prince Xiang Yun?
